The Cable Guy Summary
MPAA Rating: PG13
Director: Ben Stiller
Genres: Comedy Drama
Rating:

Originally planned as a silly vehicle for Chris_Farley, in the hands of director Ben_Stiller and star Jim_Carrey, The Cable Guy became an opportunity for Carrey to flex some of his darker comedic muscles as stalker Chip Douglas. Matthew_Broderick plays Steven, an average Joe who is forlorn over his recent breakup with girlfriend Robin (Leslie_Mann). When he moves into a new apartment, Steven comes in contact with Chip, who shows up to hook up the cable. Before he knows it, and whether he likes it or not, Steven has a new best-friend in the obnoxious and clingy Chip. However, Steven soon learns that obnoxious is a walk in the park compared to Chip's behavior when Steven tells him he doesn't want to be his pal anymore. What's worse, no one -- including Robin or his family -- believes Steven when he accuses the seemingly harmless Chip of being a malevolent menace. George_Segal and Jack_Black also star along with Stiller, who plays twins loosely-based on the Menendez brothers. Matthew Tobey, Rovi
